Essay In National Examination
The news about 2018 National Examination for student in Elementary School, Junior High School and also Senior High School attracts attention of many people in Indonesia. Most people consider it as a “disaster” for the student as it is more difficult for them to answer the items in the test. I think it is not only a disaster for the students, but also for the teachers.Firstly, essay type of test is inefficient to be conducted globally. Student from various places may have different ability in explaining their answer for the test items. In order to cunduct this type of evalution the teacher or the test maker need to provide some possible answer that may occur during the test which make it inefficient compare to multiple choice items.Secondly, essay type of test belongs to subjective test. The teacher or whoever checks the student answer will find difficulties in deciding whether the answer is correct or wrong, because they will involve their personal judgement toward each answer.The last, student will face more pressure before, during and after the test if the form of the test is in essay form because they will not be able to make the answer based on prediction when they didn’t know the answer for an item. If the test items are in the form of multiple choice, I believe the student will be at ease to undergo the test because they still have a chance to gain points even if they do not know the answer for some questions by choosing one of four possible answers.From my explanation above, it is clear that National Examination in the form of essay will be a problem for both students and the teachers.

Factors of Deviant Adolscent Behavior
Today’s adolscent behavior has deviated far from the moral values prevailing in society. This is due to several factors, such as the lack of filtering of western culture entering Indonesia.

In fact the science of religion is very important and useful, because it can control itself to avoid a disgraceful act. The last is the lack of supervision from parents.

This can be seen from the number of well-off students who actually get scholarships that should be reserved for students whose economic conditions are lacking. So it is not surprising, if these things lead to our education not progressing very rapidly.

The Quality of Education In Indonesia.
Nowadays, education in Indonesia is still left with other countries for example, Indonesia is defeat by Malaysia and Singapore. This is because of the goverment who not concern with education but just concern with infrastructure sector. Whereas, education is important thing to build a developed country. We can learn from Japan, when two beautiful cities in Japan, Hirosima and Nagasaki were bombed with nuclear because of world war II, the Emperor of Japan called all teachers and said to them if with education they can rebuild their country. From that story, we can conclude if education is number one. However the fact, Indonesia can not make good quality in education sector. There are many students feel tired and bored when they school. Firstly, Because they get much homework. secondly the duration of studying in class is so long. It can decrease creativity and skill of student. Thirdly, because of quality of teacher. Some teacher can not teach well, they just read a book without explain that subject. It makes student do not have good knowledge. From this case, the goverment should do seriously with education in indonesia. To create good young generation who make a better improve for Indonesia.

Education in Indonesia today is still lagging quite far with education in other countries in the world. Even in Indonesia it self is still inferior to neighboring countries us, namely Malaysia and Singapore in the field of education. This can be witnessed from the number of their residents who obtain education up to college.This can be witnessed from the number of their residents who obtain education up to college. while in indonesia, there are still many who do not get proper education and especially in remote areas such as papua, NTB,NTT and there are still many areas that are far from the center of the city that do not get a good education, the first cause namely the uneven development only build in big cities and the teachers don’t want to teach to areas far from the city center, they survive in the city, so that education in indonesia is lagging far behind due to this.

The communist ideology believes that science does not need religion. Their followers have claimed that religion is drugs or toxin, and toxin in fact make the users drunken or unaware or fly. Thus, there is no need to have religion in this life. They can live happily in balance and in harmony without any religion beside science. They call those who need religion beside science as stupid or old fashioned. Whereby, they call themselves as modern or up to date. The opponents to this belief, however think vice versa. Science needs a religion to make it balance. They believes that science without a religion is blind. While religion also needs science. They believe that religion without science is lame. In conclusion, science and religion are catalysators for mankind to live on the track or in harmony.

Working and going to school is challenging, it can be a rewarding experience if you use some foresight. However, youd better think a hundred times before you decide to take a part time job. There are a lot of things that should be factored in on the decision to take a part time job. On the negative side, working and still maintaining a good grade at school is not an easy task. Having less time for schoolwork becomes the main negative effect. On the positive side of things, a part time job helps students to support day to day living expenses. Finally, if you are considering working part time, talk to your school counsellor and your family to discuss this move. Simply explain your gols to someone else can help you make decisions and figur out your priorities.

Cigarettes
Many assumptions that smoking using menthol is much safer than other types of cigarettes. In fact,smoking using cigarettes is as dangerous as other cigarettes,even more dangerous. According to research conducted by Dr.Martin Foreman from the Morehouse School of Medicine Atlanta,United States,smokers who consume menthol cigarettes are to be very susceptible to lung decay which is more severe than consuming regular cigarettes. Therefore,reducing or even eliminating smoking should be done,whether it’s ordinary cigarettes or menthol cigarettes though. Thus,whatever types of cigarettes has negative impacts on the health of the smokers.

The cost of education in Indonesia is currently expensive. Although the goverment has provided assistance,but still students are required to pay fees for school needs,such as uniforms,clothes,books and so on. The high cost of education is not only for elemantary school,but also in college many children who have graduated from high school prefer to work compared to going to collage. So that education in Indonesia uneven and only concentrad in people who are capable. As for the less fortunate,higher education is only a dream.

The custom of islamic marriage in Minangkabau tribe is based on Islam, but there wich still up to now still in high preserve by tribe of Minangkabau. Requirement of marriage in Minangkabau tribe first have to islam religion, and different tribe. Both prospective bride have to respect and appreciate family fellow. there are some conditions that must be fulfilled for the requirements of marriage in Minang, if all conditions have been fulfilled, then the party is treated.

Marriage in Minangkabau reguires adjusment in many ways. Marriage raises a new relationship not only betwen the erson concerned but also betwen the two families. The unique in marriage in Minangkabau is Minang people are forbidden to marry people from the same suku. If the marriage “sasuku” is done the couple will being away from their family. Because marriage is the same marrying someone who has the “sasuku” blood bond. And when there is a traditional event or family event this couple will not be invited to the event. On my opinion the marriage “sasuku” should not be happend. Because in muslim marriage “sasuku” is same to marry your own brother or your sister.

LGBT CASES IN INDONESIA
The rise of LGBT cases of late the more reap the pros and cons of various parties.We know LGBT is an extension of Lesbian Gay Bisexual and Transgender, where such matters are deviations of sexual orientation. LGBT phenomenon is not only happening in Indonesia but also occurs in various parts of the world. But because of the strong cultural and religious values ​​in Indonesia, this becomes something very deviant for the people of Indonesia. In our opinion, the LGBT lifestyle should not be done because it adversely affects health and is prohibited by applicable law in Indonesia.Health factors become one of the reasons why LGBT is rejected in Indonesia.Many parties that justify LGBT with human rights reasons. However, Komnas HAM has forgotten that the context is not in defense preference but rather protection so it does not justify LGBT behavior norms.It appears that outside influences entering Indonesia do not always bring goodness for the sake of the nation. Indonesia is expected to be able to sort out and select incoming influences so that it will not be contradictory to the values ​​and basic norms and will not threaten the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia.

West Sumatra is one of Indonesia’s most culturally rich provinces.Every region in West Sumatra has a diverse and very unique tradition. One of them is Hoyak Tabuik that comes from Pariaman.Tabuik is a celebration to commemorate the day of the death of the grandson of Prophet Muhammad SAW, Hussein bin Ali who died in the war in the field of Karbala and his family, the fall on 10 Muharram.Festival has been going on since tens of years ago and is estimated to have existed since the 19th century AD .Tabuik that comes from the Arabic ‘tabut’ which means wood, refers to the legend about the appearance of a creature in the form of a winged horse and headed man called Buraq.Legenda it is told that after the death of the Prophet’s grandson, wooden box containing pieces of Hussein’s body was flown to the sky by Buraq.Based on this legend, every year Pariaman people create a replica of Buraq who was carrying the ark on his back.

in minang kabau is famous for its games derived from the ancient times until now for example the traditional games for example tekong teklek, kalereng, marbles and marbles, but now it is lost due to the many influence of the game from outside the example smartphone, so that many generations are easily affected and the prohibition of parents to their children to play outside the home, so that the child can only play at home and can be less sociable to the environment in which he lives.

Silat minangkabau is a martial art owned by the Minangkabau community, West Sumatra, Indonesia passed down from generation to generation from generation to generation. The Minangkabau people have the habit of wandering since hundreds of years ago. To migrate, of course, they must have enough supplies to keep away from the worst things during the trip or in the rantau, for example, attacked or robbed people. In addition to the provision to wander, silek is important for the defense of the nagari against external threats. The Minangkabau region in the central part of Sumatra as well as other areas of the archipelago is a fertile area and an important spice producer since the first century AD, therefore, security threats could have come from the migrants to this archipelago.

Title : Kawin Sasuku
Kawin sasuku
Kawin sasuku is a marriage done by a pair of lovers who have the same tribe. in minang kabau, kawin sasuku is strictly prohibited because people who have the same tribe are considered brothers, and the community or parents will not give permission to those who will do kawin sasuku. Actually the requirement of marriage is if the couple has no mother and father the same, and the most important is get permission from parents, they can do the wedding. And when they have the same tribe means they already know each other this will make the family become more peaceful. in Islam dating is set by Allah SWT. Although they are a tribe if Allah has predestined them to be mate, as Muslims they will not be able to reject it.

Flood
Floodplains are the flat land near a river that is covered with water when the river rises following a strom. They provide severak benefits. They can control flooding when the waters of a narrow river rise rapidly. As soon as the rivers water has exceeded its banks and enters a floodplain,the water spreads out a wide area and slows down. There,the floodplain holds the water,allowing it to be slowly released into the river system and into underground bodies of water.floodplains also help clean rivers and streams. They keep the water long enoung for sediment (small particles of dust,rock,and organic metter) to settle into the eart under the floodplain. This keeps the sediment ourt of the river or stream.

minangkabau have many cultural changes, such as ancient people at the event such as marriage using traditional dances now become dangdut singing, rumah gadang that changed into a modern house, and clothes that used to wear baju kurung now has become a western cultural outfit such as jeans, and often walking time minang kabau culture has begun to fade

Pasambahan dance is one of the interesting traditional dance from West Sumatera, Indonesia. This traditional dance showed for welcoming guests of honor on an event. Not only that, nowadays we also can see Pasambahan dance on the show as the entertainment for many people. In showing this dance, Pasambahan usually accompanied by strains of traditional music from Minangkabau like telompong pacik, sarunai, drum tambui, bansi, and tassa. In addition, Dance Pasambahan also accompanied by the songs and words as a welcome-home present. Therefore, showing Pasambahan Dance will make people glad and blissful.

the many customs passed down by ancient times and now no longer in use because of the many cultures that enter a very different so that it can change the custom of minang in the new generation. for example in generations today:
Women become prostitutes and children become abandoned or street children, minang kabau has removed the filsah and the people in the old by the minang “child dipangku nephew guided?” Daughters now even become street children because too free , a dressing model of indecent Minangkabau teenagers far from Minangkabau culture and customs. One more thing the reality of Minangkabau women today is the increase in violence and rape of girls, Minangkabau women are largely no longer in positive terms even said to be free from parents, the large number of Minangkabau culture teenagers who no longer know the customs, manners, and manners in Minangkabau adat.

The Uniqueness Of The Minangkabau Language

Minang language is a unique language because of its many differences and diversity, Minang language has many variants, even intercrops separated by the river can have different variants. The most striking difference is the variant spoken in the Pesisir Selatan district and the variants in the Mukomuko district of Bengkulu. In addition the Minangkabau language variants are also spoken by some residents along the west coast of Sumatra island from Mandailing Natal, Sibolga, Barus in North Sumatra, to Singkil, Simeulue, Aceh Selatan, Aceh Barat Daya and Meulaboh in Aceh. In Aceh this variant of Minang language is called Jamee language, while in Mandailing Natal, Sibolga and Barus is called Pesisir language. The language of Minangkabau contain certain uniqueness in it, therefore many people outside of Minangkabau tribe likes to learn the language of minangkabau as well interested in listening to the language.

Randang
Randang is a meat dish that tastes spicy by using various kinds of herbs and spices. Randang can be found in Padang restaurants around the world. This dish is popular in Indonesia and other Southeast Asian countries, such as Malaysia, Singapore, Brunei Darussalam, Philippines, and Thailand. In Minangkabau, randang is presented at various traditional ceremonies and special occasions. Each area in Minangkabau has a cooking technique as well as a choice of different spices depending on the taste of each area. Therefore, randang is a typical food of Minangkabau that is rich in herbs and spices.

Speak of the existence of LGBT group referring to human rights violations, violations of Pancasila democracy, religion laws and natural laws within the scope of Indonesia.
West Sumatera is the largest LGBT group in Indonesia and Padang is the first place in West Sumatera where LGBT group with a lot of poeple. The data of gay presence in West Sumatera is very suprising. Why not, in the realm of society that organiza strict social intercourse even appear deviant behavior. LGBT is very disturbing the surrounding community. Same-Sex relationships are an obscene relationship and a myriad of negative effect of behavioral aberrations. Therefore, we must anticipate the presence of LGBT around us. The Goverment of West Sumatera should be in charge of responding to LGBT presence in Padang

The life of Minangkabau people is closely related to the teachings of Islam. Many sources of law in Minangkabau based on the teachings of islam. Islam society in Minangkabau one of the largest Islamic comunity in Indonesian, therefor Minangkabau became the largest Islamic regligion in Indonesia. “Adat basandi sarak, sarak basandi kitabullah”. Minangkabau ancestral custom said. But now the muslim community in Minangkabau have started to forget custom based on Islamic teachings. Many young generation influenced by foreign culture and forget the culture of Minangkabau.

At this stage the female family will go to the male family with a number of hands. The purpose of Maresek is that the family will find out the suit of the groom with the prospective bride.
I think this is a good culture in custom minang kabau, because by doing this custom, the family of the bride can judge and do “surfey” in advance to the prospective groom and his family. Because before marriage we must know better in advance candidates and families of our companion candidates. At this stage also if the female family does not like the groom’s family then the marriage will not be executed, but if the bride likes the male family and vice versa then the family meeting will continue at a later stage. And I think this kind of culture will reduce the misunderstanding between families and households. So, I agree with the custom of “Maresek” from Minang Kabau Area.

One of the habits of people today is the smoke. Smoking is not good for the health because it can cause problems breathing, cancer, a cough dry , until the pain in the lung. In addition to the smoke is not only to harm himself, but also distrimental to the people that are surroundings. These people called with smoke passive, smoke passive with the same risk of exposure to active smoker chemicals dangerous. In conclusion ciggarettes are not just harm themselves but also other people.

Tradition of marriage
The society of minangkabau has many cultures and traditions. One of the traditions, minangkabau don’t allowed marriage with same tribe. The society considers that if someone has the same tribe means they are a family. From the marriage the society of minangkabau expand their generation. They believe that doing the marriage with same tribe will make a foolish offspring. For this reason, the society of minangkabau choose didn’t marriage with same tribe.

The cost of education in Indonesia today can be said “expensive”. Although the government has provided educational assistance, students should pay for school costs in the form of uniforms, books and other necessities. Education is not only in primary schools but in college high education is quite expensive even in Public universities.Caused government does not provide direct assistance to the existing universities so many children who graduated in the middle school to choose work than continuing education to a higher level.Of course it indicates that education in Indonesia is not evenly distributed and only covers the capable people while the less able to higher education becomes a wishful thinking.

In contrast to many other traditional Indonesian societies, Minangkabau society and culture has a philosophy and a worldview that truly contains eternal global values “Indak Langkang Dek Paneh Indak Lapuak Dek Hujan”. Through these petitih and pantun, people will find some basic principles of life. A number of cultural traits attached to the Minangkabau name are : democratic, open, reciprocal, egalitarian, centrifugal, competitive, cooperative, and accommodating conflict. After put down “Nan Bana” as king and supreme law. The real king in Minangkabau culture is not person, but “the righteous law” a law upon which none other than Kitabullah (Al Qur’an). This is associated with the main symbol of Minangkabau culture that is “Adat Basandi Syarak, Syarak Basabdi Kitabullah”. Minangkabau culture custom also experienced the same period with the golden age of Islam. Ideas on people’s sovereignty, consideration, togetherness, justice, kinship economy, etc. Are inspired or taken from the Minangkabau cultural treasures through the votes and thoughts of the founding figures of the state. However, the Minangkabau community now is no longer interested in the principles of life that are democratic, egalitarian, open, reciprocal, centrifugal. In addition, there is also a process of globalization that brings with it the ideas of democratization, free market competition, and direct access through telecommunications and information media, which are rapidly penetrating into our society. The flow of globalization is inevitable and can not be prevented. The most important thing is that many of the global elements are harmonious and in line with the flow and path of thinking of Minangkabau culture. If the negative accesses of globalization are avoided or directed in a more constructive direction, then it can replace. Therefore, society needs to prepare themselves in order to win the flow of globalization. The goal is to globalize and to avoid the negative aspects of globalization.

Minangkabau society, as we know it is divided into many tribes. With a variety of tribes in Minangkabau of course also have variety of customs. The one of that is custom of wedding. After the wedding held, some of people habitual is accompany the groom to the bride’s house or we also know that event as “Pesta Bujang”. In this habitual event the groom usualy company by his friend until the sunrise. And we can call this people as the groomsman. This habitual use as farewell symbol to a friend who will hava a new life. It also a way to keep brotherhood among men. On the other hand, this event also use as a way to get drunk for some people. The groom and the groomsman will party until the sunrise. They will dance and sing while drinking a kind of alcohol or commonly known as ” Tuak”. This is certainly not good for their health. Sometimes this habitual event also followed by minors. Consequently, this tradition have bad impact for men and minors health that involved. And It would be nice, if we can delete this event because it have more disadvantage.

As we know that people in Minangkabau has many traditions, one of them is the tradition of diving inheritance. In Minangkabau division of inheritance in the family usually to the descendants of women. People who have died (husband) will usually bequeath all his property on the part of women (wife), while the husband’s family will not get anything. This is contrary to the teachings of Islam. In Islam the inheritence should be shared equally for the wife and husband. As we know so far who became the head of household and who work for a living is a husband. While the wife spend most of his time at home. Therefore we are as the society Minangkabau should be more wise and fair in terms of division of inheritance. Because in everyday life the husband is the one who makes more money for the family.

SHOULD NOT MARRY MY FELLOW
the tribe is a relation of siblings, many have a tribe of his tribe example sikumbang, piliang, caniago, in minangkabau forbidden to marry my tribe because he said our ancestors have a brotherly ties, supposing we marry my tribe then there is a defect offspring, then his relationship will not last long. because the relationship of blood ties that means we are brothers, continue to marry my tribe will in isolation of the local community. or have to find a house outside west sumatra

Most people in Minangkabau do marriage in the same tribe. This matter actually forbidden by the community. Marriage in the same tribe considered not good. Because they has the same lineage and has a blood relationship. They can also called siblings. If it happen, it can also make a disgrace in the family. Consequently, the people who marriage in the same tribe will be difficult to socialize in the community and may lose customary rights.

THE CULTURE IN MINANGKABAU
Minangkabau is famous for the tribe that has unique characteristics from the past until now. one of them is in the process of marriage. in minangkabau there are various processes marriage, like batuka tando, babako, etc. in the process of babako last few days before the wedding ceremony. Bako come take a variety of foods or conditions such as Nasi kuniang, singgang ayam,emas, kue, etc. but I think wedding should not like that, in Islam required just married. especially if we only people who have not enough income.

Many traditions culture are missing in minangkabau West Sumatra. One of all traditions is the night of bainai. The night of bainai a culture from minangkabau. Tradition for the bride one day before get merried. The night of bainai is the last day for the virgin. But this tradition often do not do people in development era. Maybe that because the process is not easy. And we need many money to celebrate the night of bainai. Many preparation should do to the night of bainai. For this reason many people consider to celebrate the night of bainai in development era now

Silokek is one of the potential tourist areas located in Sijunjung District, West Sumatra. A natural tourist area located along Muaro’s streets, Silokek and Durian Gadang. Throughout this area tourists can enjoy the beauty of nature such as; stunning white sand beaches, beautiful panoramic views of the canyon, cave tours (ngalau), enchanting orchid gardens, rock climbing, white water rafting, waterfall hills, hot springs and cultural tours of Japan’s steam locomotive. Silokek has a very exotic natural beauty and is able to attract the attention of local and foreign tourists. But in the year back silokek that once was very beautiful will be lost cleanliness. because of the absence to the firmness of the committee. nor from the visitors who came.

Minangkabau not only rich in natural beauty and food but also art Minangkabau. One of art is traditional Minangkabau musical instrument. There are three art of Minangkabau musical instrument of the most famous is Talempong, Saluang, Rabab, Pupuik Batang Padi, Bansi and Pupuik Tanduak. As the next generation we must know all the traditional Minangkabau musical instruments. We should also be able to play it. As a new generation Minangkabau we must know the musical instrument is not just modern musical instruments today as guitar and piano. knowing Minangkabau musical instrument is also no less important because it is a musical instrument Minangkabau that should not fade along with the times and deserve to be preserved.

Balimau done some of Minang society when the Ramadan ahead. every time before Ramadan people will go to bathing place to purify themselves. The most crowded place to be Balimau destination is the river. In the past, people raced the Balimau square, even renting cars and public transport. Now, Balimau looks like a young man’s mode to go on a date. A widely used vehicle is a motorcycle. And the culprit is the young couple. Balimau is no longer a family event and turns into an unmarried couple. Of course it is prohibited by custom and religion. For that reason, it is better if people do Balimau at home, because the most important of Balimau Tradition is the intention to purify themselves before arriving in the month of Ramadan.

Myths in Minangkabau
They are some many myths in Minangkabau,
we are often hear about myths,when we were child,ancint people often said do not wearing umbrella in the house later struck by lightning,logically it is not make sense,bacause we can disturb people in the house.Andthen ancint people said do not take a shower at night later pinched by ghosht,if we thinking againt all people know about consequences if we take a shower at night,and the lastone,do not sit in front of the door later sustenance is prevented,thinking logically the true is we can stop people from passing.
In fact it is just away to scare us,some people believe that myths and some people do not believe that.
Whatever,do you want to believe or not.

There are many things that very interesting in Minangkabau society. From all of those I really have something to say about special food and commerce there. Minangkabau’s foods are really famous not only in Indonesia, but also in foreign countries. But, do not you know what is the most famous and special food in Minangkabau? It is Rendang, which the most delicious one food in the world. Then, we talk about commerce. Why do I really want to say about it there? Because, Minangkabau society also greatly famed about trading. May as almost half of them are merchants, but I do not think so. That is likely the old adage or wise words only. They are famed as professional and intelectual people in trading. They are said to be the heirs of the old tradition of the Malay Kingdom and the Sriwijaya who love to trade. For this reason, these things are greatly interesting to say, because they are very famous in Minangkabau society and many people know about these.

In Minangkabau, women are an important symbol in a family. Considered good a bad family depends on the behavior of girls in it. Therefore, formerly Minang girls very guarded her personality with the customs Minangkabau. Starting from how to dress, her words, and her behavior. However, the more time faded the custom. Where formerly Minang girls wearing lots of brackets or loose and no one came out at night. Now we can see for ourselves the change, the Minang girls already disregard the custom. They even compete to follow and imitate the times, both in terms of fashion, dress and association. Who used to wear strange clothes as foreign, is now the opposite. The worse again, first if there is a girl who was still out of the house when sunset, considered a girl who is not good behavior. Whereas, now her own parents even allow her son to go on a date night with a man who is not her muhrim. Consequently, now many girls are pregnant out of wedlock.

In West Sumatera many the singers that has good talent.For example,Elly Kasim,Zalmon and Tiar Ramon is the singer is legendary until now.But,until now there is not generation follow the trail of them.
Sometimes already have popular suddenly stop after married and feel ashamed to showing a song Minang in Asian or in the World.Many peoples in West Sumatera have hopes for the Singers Minang now like Ratu Sikumbang,Daniel Maestro,Rayola and others singer so that they can to follow the trail Elly Kasim,Zalmon and Tiar Ramon.

This is based because Minangkabau culture is no longer functioning as expected. One of Minangkabau culture is almost extinct that is dress pattern Minangkabau society especially for adolescent. If we look at teenage patterns in Minangkabau in ancient times, the differences between men and women. For women wearing baju kuruang in their daily lives. Baju Kuruang is currently very difficult to find in Minangkabau, because to Minangkabau people baju kuruang very far behind from the models of clothes in the present. However, once the baju kuruang has a very important meaning for a woman in Minangkabau. In conclusion along with the times, after the western culture into Indonesia, unknowingly people have combine western culture with eastern culture in aspects of their lives, especially teenagers.

Randai
Randai is one of the kind of children’s theather of Nagari Minangkabau.Usually,one group of 14 to 25 players who perfomed the play of folk stories,such as Kati Alam,Samsudin,Siti Sabariah,Alam Saedar and other.Technically,Randai is a blend of dance,music and teather.The advantage lies in the form of presentation with the shape of the circle pattern.The closeness between the players and the players and the audience makes Randai very familiar with the Minangkabau community.Randai is usually played in open areas or in the field,so the audience that surrounds the player appears to be a unified whole in every appearance,the audience may interupt dialogues delivered by the player or may be cheered to give the players a passion like Lenong in Betawi.But in the modern era as today,children’s theater of Nagari Minangkabau began fade and difficult to find in every area Minangkabau.As Minangkabau people,we should maintain,preserve,and retain the culture of Minangkabau.

Minangkabau Language Eroded By The Times
Minang language is a typical language of Padang,West Sumatera. We can know that someone is from West Sumatra is to pay attention to his accent. Because people of West Sumatera have a characteristic in speaking. But today, Minang language slowly abandoned by young people. Most of them prefer not to use it as a colloquial anymore. They look ashamed of the minangkabau culture which has been inherited. For this reason, because minang language is inheritance, they should preserve it instead of leaving it, in order to be inherited to their grandchildren in the future

The behavior of teenagers now has deviate far from the moral values applicable in the community. This is because the factors, First such as less the filter Western culture that enter to Indonesia. Cultures in the emulate and considere to be something new by teens at this time. Second factor that is the lack of knowledge would theology to young people. In fact, studies religion is very important and rewarding, as can be self-control to avoid a deed despicable. the latter is the lack of supervision of the parents. Parents is responsible for the behavior and socially their children. parents less concerned with their children can cause they feel loved so looking for compassion the outside of family who tend to lead into the negative and certainly be apparent, such as drinking alcohol, club night, drugs and even free sex. as a result the behavior of the teen is currently not reflect the culture of sublime our nation with value and norms that there.

Ban Smoking Ban Smoking in Public Places Smoking is one of the leading causes of preventable deaths in the United States, and doing it in public is even worse because smokers not only harm themselves, but also those around them. I remember how my great uncle would always smoke in his house regardless of his surroundings. When his daughter visited him for a vacation, she brought her three year old daughter with her. The baby was healthy before coming to her grandpa’s house, but in less than two weeks, she had developed ear infections and started to cough.

The name for traditional house Minangkabau which is a traditional house and many in meet in the province of West Sumatra,Indonesia this house also called by another name by the local comunity by the name “Rumah bagonjong, Rumah Gadang” or there is also called by the name ” Rumah Baanjuang” Rumah with this model is also community found in West Sumatra, but not all area in Minangkabau “Darek”that this costums house my be established,only in the area that already has the status as a Nagari alone Rumah Gadang can be estalished. Likewise in the area called the”Rantau”, this traditional house was also formerly not established by the Minangkabau migrants.

The behavior of teenagers
The behavior of teenagers of West Sumatra or Minang Kabau has now deviated from the prevailing values ​​and norms. This is in because of the times and follow the style of change. And also this is due to lack of supervision from parents. With the lack of parental supervision, so merwka looking for affection or pleasure outside. And many lead to negatives such as, free sex, drugs, brawl, gambling and others. With the changing behavior of adolescents today from the values ​​and norms that exist. As a result many teenagers are affected and follow the behavior.

Minangkabau is tribe majority of West Sumatera. Minangkabau also have many division of tribe. There are Tanjung, Caniago, Piliang, Sikumbang, and the others. In Minangkabau prohibit marriage with the same tribe. If we have the same tribe we are one family. Several reason why in Minangkabau prohibit marriage with the same tribe. First, married with someone who has the same tribe will be excluded from Minangkabau society. Second, there will be frequent fight in their households. Third, if they have children, their children will have mental disability. It is the custom of Minangkabau society. For this reason, we are as Minangkabau society should be comply with existing rules, because we live in a society that has customs.

Matrilineal system
The matrilineal system is a system which is organize life, and the order of a society that is bound in a bond of kinship in the maternal line. The children which is boy and girl in our family that is brought by their mother blood. So, who the child was born with a background of Minangkabau parents, they should follow their mother. For example, the husband and wife got divorce, the children should be follow their mother. As we know, the husband must got much livelihood, but now, the woman can be get the livelihood without their husband. Some people said that the woman can be the strongest more than man. Some of the children can be success without their father. In conclusion, this system is unique, we must take the positive thinking. Different from others is not necessarily bad.

First of all what is slum area for exactly? Well, Slum area is a place are highly populations but not well maitenance. In this case, so many places in Padang city has slum area which is Alai, Jati,Kubu Dalam and also Parak Gadang.But the problem it is, does The Government care about? The answer is yes, but not maximalized. Many factors causes why the slum area still a lot in this city. For example The people stay in slum area are comfortable with their environtment,so they dont care even do anarcism to deny if The government want so move them to better place. On other hand, To make city be better, The government have to spend a lot of their regional income,so this is the big problem too. Our budget not have enough to pay all of The slum area aspect,because not only that things the goverment cares about. But we believe,in every single time,every single day are always move to be better and also to our city. The goverment should more be wise to do in every single aspect for exactly,The slum area in this city.

Title : hidden tours
Minangkabau famous with many tours. Tours that many people known are Jam Gadang, Padang Beach, and many other. Actually, many tours besides most of us know, there are Timbulun waterfall, Belek waterfall, Binguang estuary and many others. Some obstacles that cause the tours are not exposed are the transportation and infrastructure. Transportation is a important thing to go to somewhere, because there are tours location are difficult such a remote and many traveler hard to go there. Another obstacles is infrastructure, it is good for tours that has complete infrastructure. Because the traveler will be comfortable if want to stay in there. But if there is no one infrastructure in the tours, traveler will feel distress, moreover remember that the location is far away from crowd. Overall, Minangkabau is an rich area of tours which must be developed and introduced.

Rubbish
Throwing litter carelessly has become a bad habit of society. Society in its daily activities consciously and deliberately throw garbage carelessly. It happens because of lack of awareness and sense of responsibility to cleanliness of the environment. Waste management should be done properly. If not, waste will cause disease, damaging scenery, and other negative impacts. Solutions that can be used to manage existing waste by recycling organic and inorganic waste. The waste can be recycled into fertilizer, handicrafts, to power plants. Therefore, managing waste by way of recycling should be done optimally so that the garbage does not give a bad impact, both for humans and the surrounding environment.

Minang language is a unique language because of its many differences and diversity, Minang language has many variants, even intercrops separated by the river can have different variants. The most striking difference is the variant spoken in the Pesisir Selatan district and the variants in the Mukomuko district of Bengkulu. In addition the Minangkabau language variants are also spoken by some residents along the west coast of Sumatra island from Mandailing Natal, Sibolga, Barus in North Sumatra, to Singkil, Simeulue, Aceh Selatan, Aceh Barat Daya and Meulaboh in Aceh. In Aceh this variant of Minang language is called Jamee language, while in Mandailing Natal, Sibolga and Barus is called Pesisir language. The language of Minangkabau contain certain uniqueness in it, therefore many people outside of Minangkabau tribe likes to learn the language of minangkabau as well interested in listening to the language.

NARKOTIKA
Narkotika is one of kind of drug which is so dangerous for human health.And narkotika is consist from several variaties such us opiate,morpin,damerol,heroin,and ganja.They are so dangerous because they have three trait which strap the user.First is habitual,that is the trait that make the user always remember,imagine,and miss to use them.Second is adiktif,that is the trait that make the user always depand to use them.Third is toleran,that is the trait that make the user become one to narkotika that force the user use them more than before.In fact,if the user always use narkotika,the user will get some deseases such as demage respiratory system,changes brain function,mental demage etc.For this reason narkotika is so dangerous for human health .

Merantau is the habit of men minang
Merantau ( going to another place for money) is a habit which is always done by Minangnese men. They do this because most of them do not have treasure capital to have a business. Merantau has positive and negative impact. The positive impact is they can work in another place and eam money. They can also find life partners (wifes) out of their trible, moreover they can be mature and responsible men. However, there are also negative impact of Merantau. First, they may have less Fraternity band because they are far away from their family, second, children can get less love from father. As a result they can be naughty. Even this can cause juvenile delinquency. And the last, husband can have another wife at another place we can conclude that Merantau has positive and negative sides that can impact the men themselves and other people (family)

Padang beach is a favorite spot vocation by teenagers. The teenagers called the Padang beach is Taplau. This located in Samudra Street, Padang.

Judul : suntiang
Paragraf :
Suntiang is a bridal headdress in Minangkabau West Sumatra. Large ornaments with the colour gold or silver, make the Minangkabau cultur feast different from other cultures in Indonesia. Minangkabau women should be proud of Minangkabau culture, especially about the wedding dress. hereditary, Minangkabau wedding dress is very different, and for women, that is in addition to the traditional clothes “baju kurung, sarung balapak, and suntiang” although suntiang looks great and weight it does not a problem for the bride, by wearing suntiang will make a bride look more beautiful and show her pride with minang culture because suntiang is culture of minang tribe, and should continue to be maintained so as not fade with the development era.

Lately, many Teenagers not to reseve the culture of minangkabau. Even, they are not care about their culture. They are also do not know about this culture eventhough, they are derived and live in this minangkabau. Furthermore, they more to know about the other culture than their culture and their more care about other culture than their culture. Finally, they do not have the knowledge about the culture of minangkabau. consequently, minang kabau culture will be die and will not arrive to our children and granchildren later.

The High of Education
The cost of education is now expensive, even though the government has provided assistance, but still the students are required to pay fees for school purposes, such as uniforms, clothes, books, etc. The cost of education is not only in elementary schools, but also up to college.
Many children who have graduated from high school prefer to work compared to continue to college. So education in Indonesia is uneven and concentrated only on capable people. As for the less fortunate, higher education is just a dream. Thus, then we should be able to be very clever in studying so they can enter college with existing scholarships.

Impact Road Congestion at Tunggul Hitam
Road congestion often happen everyday like at intersection Tunggul Hitam around at 6.40 am, usually in there happen because there are cross road, railroad, place to cross and the traffic light turn off. That is make peoples feel bad and angry with curse and turn on honking. If that happen constantly, it is effect pollution air and damage hearing. Sometimes road congestion cause accident. Eventhough many police in there, I think they are still difficult for set this place. Overall, the governments should be fixed traffic light and setting in this place, so that do not cause pollution.

The Horrible Wild Motorbike In Padang
If we look In padang so many wild motorbike gang are roaming in the desert town and hanging in certain places.

Education in Indonesia is still lagging far enough with education that are in other countries of the world.Even Indonesia itself is still inferior to our neighbouring countries, namely Malaysia and Singapore in the field of education.This can be seen from the large number of residents who obtain their education up to College.While in Indonesia, the number of residents who get an education course is still far behind other countries, especially in regions lagging behind as NTB, NTT, Papua and other areas.Failed education in these areas caused due to not meratanya education in the country of Indonesia. The Government only build education facilities in urban areas, especially in Java.Not only that, the limited number of teachers in the area also created the more away access to education that exist in the area.Finally, education in Indonesia is uneven and tend to be left behind, so have not been able to compete with other countries in the world.

Traditional Wedding Custume
One of issue that I heard nowly is the traditional wedding custome that is design by Indonesian designer. The custome is beautiful with the sunting or as know as something that minang is people wear on head when wedding. The problem is the custome is backless. It is opposed of the local culture. In my opinion, the designer is made a mistake beacause if designer want to expore about culture, the designer should have to know about the culture. About what can designer do or not. And I think as the minang’s sociaty. We can tell about our culture

In Minangkabau, people there use Minang language. That is, one of the languages of the Malay language spoken by the Minang people as the mother tongue. Exactly, which the mother tongue special in West Sumatera ( except Mentawai), West coast of Aceh, North Sumatera, Western part of Riau province, North Jambi, Bengkulu and Negeri Sembilan. So, this Minang language used as a everyday. But, for Minangkabau people who was born monitored. They have been using Indonesian language in a everyday.

MINANGKABAU.
I feel that the Minangkabau at this time is very different and not same as once. However the development of the times is very influential anywhere including Minangkabau. Young people in Minangkabau who like to go to the mosque now is not rare even no longer exists. Who like to learn to read the Al-Qur’an now longer exist, even they rarely do the prayer. Minangkabau just stay a name in my eyes, no meaning anymore. But certainly there are even a few of minangkabau’s people who still apply the behaviors and rules that apply first.

In general, bajapuik (picked) is a tradition performed by minang people in customary process of marriage, because in matrilineal system of husband position is a person. , which involves valuable goods such as money. So then known as japutan (pick up), agiah bitch (money or gold given by the party during post-marriage) and money lost (money lost). certain that will be returned later to the bride’s family at the time after the wedding ceremony. The Bridegroom will return in the form of gold in the form of a value equivalent to the value given by the family of the Bride Party before the family of the Bride of Men.Usually this gift is by the family bridegroom (mar apes) when the bride (Son Daro) visited or Batandang ka Mintuo home. The theory of this bajapuik tradition contains the meaning of mutual respect between the side of women with the men. When men are rewarded in the form of japuik money, then the women’s side is rewarded withuang or gold is exaggerated value of money japuik or called with agiah bitch. So the conclusion of this argument is the country of Indonesia is an archipelagic country with many diverse cultures of its kind, the culture of japuik money in the wedding ceremony in pariaman this is one of them, many consider this, culture is negative because in this culture the groom is bought by his or her bride, but if this tradition is deeper in this culture it is a good culture because the giving of this money to the bridegroom is a form of homage from the family of the bride to the male family who has taken care of her from birth to dew because in the culture of the married man pariaman will live with his bride’s family. So this culture can be considered a good culture, so when we want to give judgment about something we have to observe and be careful with it.

Such restrictions have a negative impact which makes a person feel afraid and depressed by custom. Because,suppose the know someone so intertwined love affair turned out they are tribe and customs forbade to marry to , resulting in new problems such as escape from the village.
For example,in 2012 in Sijunjung regency there is a couple who are ready to marry but the citizens know them. They are expelled as far away from the village and pay a fine of 1 white buffalo this incident caused many situations that are not appropriate.
Marrying the tribe is a social and marital relationship between men with Minangkabau women who are still one tribe or one clan,
although in Minangkabau customs prohibits the marriage of tribe but Islam permits.
Why in the customs of marriage is prohibited my tribe when it is clear Minangkabau adat based on Islam in accordance with the traditional philosophy of Minang adaik basandi syarak syarak basandi kitabullah.
That said that marriage is negative, such as narrowing the association can cause division, creating a quality offspring, but the impact has not been proven. As a result, the community should support and not complicate the situation or circumstances that can cause an undesirable thing.

Smoking Ban on Campus in the City of Ranah minang
There are several reasons why there is a smoking ban on campus. In many cases, first,they are not healthy for health and can cause lung cancer, besides, smoking can also cause premature death. Second, cigarettes smell bad, because when people smoke, we can breathe the smell of cigarettes in their clothes all day, for example, when we go to the canteen and we bump into a smoker we will smell the cigarette. Lastly, smoking is also not good for passive smoking, because passive smokers will receive the effects of active smokers, passive smokers usually more susceptible to disease than active smokers. Consequently, don’t smoke because they are not healthy for the body’s health.

Tradition wander is identical with Minang people. Not complete it feels the life of Minang youth if not yet feel the bitterness of living in rantau people. Some sources even mentioned that the number of Minang immigrants is greater than the number of people living in their hometown. With the tradition of wandering, the Minang people become wiser in thinking and behaving. Wandering for the Minang people was a pride and pride. In the rantau people, experience and knowledge gained, many Minang figures who achieve greatness after forging themselves in overseas. If the spirit of wandering has begun to weaken, then the local government needs to create a business field that ensures every nagari child can do more for the progress of his hometown. It aims for the trading soul can be channeled, so that business creativity get pelampiasannya. Thus, Minang youth can still develop themselves, independent and become leaders in their own areas.

The turn of the year is almost here. The new year is a long a waited time for every family to spend vacation time together. The turn of the year adjacent to the Christmas Day date is December 25th and also the semester break makes the holiday atmosphere more crowded and festive. Every family will definitely prepare their vacation plans from far away. Most people will choose to use their personal vehicle for sightseeing. This resulted in the flow of traffic during the holidays becomes more crowded. As a result, not infrequently because of the congestion caused, travel time travel becomes very long

Having a smoking habit can lead you to the abyss of death. Has many data proving that many people who died caused by smoking factor. According to data collected by the Ministry of Health every 10 minutes found people die and every year more 400,000 people died due to various diseases associated with smoking habits and this occured in Indonesia. Based on the word Dr.Aria Nugraha smoke the respiratory organs such as the lungs and also cause various diseases such as pregnancy disorders in pregnant women that contain, heart attacks etc. Cigarettes are very dangerous because they contain substances such as floor bleach, toxins and rocket fuel. The harm in cigarette making is that there is nicotine that gives the addict effect on the smoker. Therefor stop smoking before it is too late because cigarattes can cause illness and also causing death.

Transgender is a problem that is rife in indonesian today, transgender can be said of diseases of mental disorders in someone.

Few people realize that minang girls increasingly lose their identity and make the culture of minang woman increasingly eroded and fade away. For example in terms of dressed. Formerly minang girls wore a long and polite dress that in minang called ‘baju kurung’ . However, if we compared with the present, it is difficult yo find minang girls who dressed like that and many of them wear narrow and tight clothes. One of the factor that cause it is the development of fashion world from other region or country. It make they do not want to miss and follow it. As a result, the culture and custom of minang girls feom old and now have been much different about how they dressed and it is far from teaching of region and custom.

In minangkabau, it is forbidden for people to get marriage with a same race. For example, if the woman is “chaniago” (one of races in Minangkabau) so, she is not allowed to get marriage with a man that is chaniago too. In Minang ethnic a same race means a same blood. That is why it is forbidden because if they got marriage, there might be a health problem with their kids. Nowadays, many Minang’s people disobeyed the rule. Some of Minang’s people disbelieve the effect of the marriage. They disagree about the opinion “same race means same blood”. Moreover, they also think that there is no rule about that in Al-qur’an. So, this problem is still be a controversy among minang’s people.

ARGUMENTATIVE ON ECONOMY
Currently education in Indonesia has a cost that can if considered too expensive even though the government has been distributing subsidies but still the students have to pay fees for the benefit of school such as uniform book clothes and so forth.
Expensive education costs are not only in elementary school but at the same time up to the level of students.
Because it causes the majority of children who have graduated from high school to decide to work directly rather than continuing education to university so it can be considered said that Indonesia’s education is uneven and concentrated on the capable parties only.

One of the most widely used functions by internet users is the internet as a source of media information. By using the internet, can get information quickly and easily. However, the ease of information that can be obtained from the internet gives a positive and negative impact for internet users themselves. Here are the positive and negative impacts that the internet can have on consumers. Positive impact of internet such as: Internet users can obtain information easily and quickly. Simply by entering a keyword in the search engine we will get what we are looking for. In addition, the internet can be used by companies as a media campaign. They can introduce their products for free and easy. the use of the internet for students can get a lot of references from books and materials available on the internet Negatively impact the Internet: can make most students lazy thinking about the task given by the teacher.

Education in Indonesia
Education in Indonesia today lags far behind with education in other countries in the world.
Even Indonesia itself is still inferior to our neighbor countries, namely Malaysia and Singapore in the field of education.
This can be witnessed by the large number of people who get education up to university.
While in Indonesia, the number of people who get education is still far behind with other countries, especially in disadvantaged areas such as NTB, NTT, Papua and many other areas.
The lack of education in these areas is caused by unequal education in the State of Indonesia. The government only builds educational facilities in urban areas, especially the island of Java.
Not only that, the limited number of teachers in the area also contributes to the further access to education in the region.
Finally, education in Indonesia is uneven and tends to lag, so it has not been able to compete with other countries in the world.

Littering has become a bad habit of the people of Padang City. Society in its daily activities always consciuosly and deliberately throw garbage carelessly. This happens because of the lack of awareness and sense of responsibility of each individual on the cleanliness of the environment. The government it self has made rules on the issue of garbage disposal in any place and has set sanctions for the perpetrators. But on the other hand, people still just ignore the regulation and still pollute the surrounding environment. Padang City Sanitation Department appealed to the people of Padang City not to throw garbage into the river because it will cause flood and garbage will reach the beach causing damage to the beauty of the beach.

Minang Society
Minang society is a wise society and rich in cultural values ​​and philosophy. Minang people know the proverbs that closely with the life of Minangkabau society. Minang society is a society that closely with Islamic law. Therefore all forms of culture in accordance with the holy book of the Qur’an. However, in some specific aspects is still relatively different from the teachings of Islam.Kehidupan Minang people are also very closely with nature, known as a communal living community and promote the family and values ​​of harmony.Culture of Minang tradition is of course motivated by the nobility of philosophy a life inherited by the ancestors of the Minang people. The philosophy of Minang people is called the Samo Philosophy or the same meaningful equation, similarity and togetherness between individuals, between people and between villages. From the above exposure we can conclude that Minang people are religious people and have a high sense of kinship.

The behavior of adolescents now had deviated far from morality ablicable in the community. It is because of some factor, like less filtered western culture incoming to Indonesia. The unfortunate thing is the behavior imitated is the bad behavior of the western culture, such as free sex, drugs and so forth. Parents who are less concerned with their children can cause them to feel involved, so look for affection outside the family that tends to lead negative. As a result the behavior of teenagers today does not reflect the noble culture of our nation with the values and norms that exist.
